Monday January 3, 2011 thought for the day

HERE ARE MY THOUGHTS FOR TODAY

1-Marriage was not instituted to make you happy, only Jesus can do that-

2-Our desire for God is a spiritual barometer of where we are spiritually-

3-God wants us to love him like he loves us-

4-If we don't like discipline, we should avoid sin that requires it-

5-We are to reach up as far as we can and God will reach down the rest of the way-

STRANGE THOUGHT-If you don't learn to laugh at trouble, you won't have anything to laugh at when you are old-

I'VE LEARNED-No matter what accomplishment you achieve, somebody helped you-

DID YOU KNOW-the abbreviation for pound, "lb.," comes from the astrological sign Libra, meaning "balance"-

5 THINGS I WANT TO KNOW

1-Is a miracle God breaking our natural laws?

2-Can our prayers change God's mind?

3-Have we lost the "awe" for God in the church today?

4-Why was Jesus' life so impacted by the Holy Spirit since he himself was God?

5-Is the Trinity a true mystery?

BIBLE TRIVIA-What man is the most mentioned man in the Bible?

Yesterday's answer-Michal

SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY JAMES 4:11-17

You Are Not the Judge

¹¹ Brothers and sisters, do not tell evil lies about each other. If you speak against your fellow believers or judge them, you are judging and speaking against the law they follow. And when you are judging the law, you are no longer a follower of the law. You have become a judge.¹² God is the only Lawmaker and Judge. He is the only One who can save and destroy. So it is not right for you to judge your neighbor.

Let God Plan Your Life

¹³ Some of you say, "Today or tomorrow we will go to some city. We will stay there a year, do business, and make money."¹⁴ But you do not know what will happen tomorrow! Your life is like a mist. You can see it for a short time, but then it goes away.¹⁵ So you should say, "If the Lord wants, we will live and do this or that."¹⁶ But now you are proud and you brag. All of this bragging is wrong.¹⁷ Anyone who knows the right thing to do, but does not do it, is sinning.

I WISH YOU A DAY FILLED WITH LOVE, LAUGHTER, FORGIVENESS AND THANKSGIVING-JASPER
